Jeff Bagwell’s girlfriend Rachel Brown

You may have heard about Jeff Bagwell’s girlfriend Rachel Brown getting publicly groped up by the Astros great. The video was pretty funny: she was doing a weird swimming pantomime while pushing the heads of the two guys she was with (Bagwell included). Bagwell then firmly grabbed her left breast and gave it a big squeeze. These kinds of things make for funny internet fodder, but the real story behind Rachel’s past doesn’t really involve Jeff at all. They get very interesting when you learn about her ex-husband, the mysterious hand surgeon, Michael Brown.

You can’t really talk about Jeff Bagwell’s girlfriend Rachel Brown without mentioning her ex husband. Michael Brown was at one time the leader of a hand surgery empire, which he started in 1988 and grew into a number of clinics across the country. It’s almost completely gone now, and Brown himself is dead after committing suicide following one of many violent and strange outbursts. He hung himself a day before he was supposed to go to federal prison for choking a flight attendant on a flight. The guy was married four times, and Rachel was his fourth wife, but the wife before Rachel filed a lawsuit alleging that he beat her with a bedpost while she was seven months pregnant. Yikes! Clearly, Jeff Bagwell is a huge step up for Rachel if she was married to that guy. There’s also self-taped videos of him holding a pistol up to his dome and talking about trying to escape “the hell his wife put him through.”

But let’s not dwell on Rachel’s totally bananas ex-husband. She first went to Cabo San Lucas with Bagwell while she was married to the crazy hand doctor back in 2010. In fact, both Bagwell and Brown were separated but still married to their respective spouses. I also learned that Rachel got a voice message from an accidental call from her then-husband in which he can be heard talking to some other woman he was with. She missed the call because she was napping. The stories never stop with Rachel. Rachel also scratched the words “fuck you” into the crazy doctor’s Lamborghini hood, but seriously, enough about that. Rachel and Jeff are clearly having a great time together, going to Astros games and getting their grope on.
